for example if i have a very large list of records and i want to edit one record in a pop window for example. after editing the record and closing the popup i find i have to reload the entire list again.

is there anyway i can just reload the only record i edited so that the page load time is not so long due to loading the entire lista again and again after editing a record?

Has anyone been able to associate a custom object to OpportunityLineIte?

I'm trying to associate a custom object (BOM_Item__c) to OpportunityLineItems, preferably via a Master-Detail connection but a Lookup connection would also be ok.

I've tried to do this via the salesforce web setup interface. When trying to create a Lookup or Master-Detail connection the OpportunityLineItem is not among the selectable objects.

When I try to create the connection via the Force.com integration in Eclipse I also get errors (see below).

Is the OpportunityLineItem not a normal object? If that's the case is there some other way I can achieve the same result?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!
